@Max Power You're gonna love this thing! Its so versatile. You can dress it down with jeans or dress it up with trousers.
I agree with @DrPat that it is not terribly warm, but I have found that you if you layer (UFH and/or hoodie and/or outer vest) it can definitely hold its own in the winter months…

Great, thanks a lot @DrPat and @Dstauffer . The aged leather looks amazing, way better than i thought. This would have me pushed over. Also i like how its not super warm as my schott and ihm15 do that job. But we have a lot rainy inbetween warm and cold days here in hamburg and this will be perfect for the jacket.

So here it is and im blown away. Will take the weekend to do a full review and better pictures, these dont do it justice. But for now let me say I love that jacket. The wife likes it too, in fact thats what she's yelling to me from the steeet below.

So, as I said I try to give you some better pictures and fits with different pants and T-Shirts to see how versatile it is.
In short, I love this jacket and already can tell I've never regretted a purchase less. The leather smells and feels awesome, not too stiff nor too light. It's pretty comfy right out of the box and already formed some nice creases within the first two days of wear. Iit serves my intended purpose very well - I wanted a fairly tight jacket that I can wear just with a Tee as my Schott is quilt lined and due to the boxier fit looks sloppy when i don't wear something heavy like a hoodie underneath.
The jacket is not super warm which makes it perfect for the current rainy 12°C. As this is a common weather here it'll surely see a lot of wear.
I also find the jacket to be versatile as it can be dresssd up (sort of) or down. I tried to show that with a few different combinations, even if that's nerdy. And I like how the shoulders don't look huge as in some other jackets I tried.
Thanks to the crew for making my perfect jacket in a cut that could have been bespoke tailored.
Excuse the overload of pictures and also the quality is not just as nice due to compression.
